Hi all, I have a question about using winvnc on Win ME machines.
Machines:
Main Machine I use- name: QWERTY internal ip: 192.168.0.1 external ip:
xxx.xx.x.xx function: normal system + ICS gateway
Qwerty is running a duron 800 with 192 mb ram and a 10/100 nic (hub only
10).
Alternate Machine- name: ASDFG internal ip: 192.168.0.2 external ip: Will
use same as QWERTY function: run statistics simulations for programming
class.
ASDFG is running a amd k6-2 500 with 128 ram and a 10.100 nic.
Two other machines: UIOP - old piece of junk my parents have. HJKL - another
system I slapped together after I rotated the old parts out of QWERTY and
ASDFG.
Both machines belong to workgroup: "Workgroup"
Here is the deal:
I have a 4 system LAN at my house with my main system acting as a gateway
(using Win ME's Internet Connection Sharing) to connect with a 56k modem to
my local ISP. Every morning before I go to my high school (I'm a student as
well as a paid computer nerd for 3 class periods a day) I boot up my system,
connect to the net and e-mail my school e-mail account (or remember the last
three digits) with my ip of the day. At school I log on to our novel server
through a win 98 se machine (connected to the schools T1) and run vnc
viewer, input my ip of the day, and connect to my ICS system at home. This
is all fine and dandy, but now the question. What do I do if I want to
connect to another system on my LAN. I can not switch the ip address because
with ICS all of the systems have the same external ip. Would it be something
like doing a compound ip (just made up that word) like with the
external/internal ip's? example: xxx.xx.x.xx/192.168.0.2 or can I use the
machines name example: xxx.xx.x.xx/ASDFG. I'm trying to find a solution to
being able to access ASDFG without first logging on to QWERTY and running
VNC from there onto ASDFG, but I did do that once just to see if it would
work.
Notes: I have already added the registry keys to QWERTY to open up 5800 and
5900 in ICS. But I have not touched the registry on ASDFG.
- Also, I have a full administrative account of my own at school so I
shouldn't be being blocked in anyway by the school's servers.
I realize that a VNC scanner may solve my problem, but I haven't got around
to figuring out how to work one yet.
